A BEWILDERING ARRAY
Water so clear you can see for 35 metres. A bewildering array of marine creatures. The chance to snorkel with manta rays. This is an unmissable destination for divers.
You float easily on the warm water, gazing into the crystal clear depths at shoals of brilliantly coloured fish swirling over the spires and fans of the seabed.
And suddenly you’re surrounded by huge, gentle ghosts – manta rays silently flying through the water, like alien spacecraft. You will never forget your luxury, tailor-made holiday to the Maldives, especially if you stay at Soneva Fushi. This five star resort is surrounded by the only UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve in the whole of the Maldives, so the diving is unrivalled.
But that’s not the end of the story. Soneva Fushi also offers you the chance to go island hopping by speedboat, or gaze at stars from a professional observatory. Or breakfast on the beach at sunrise, or cruise into the sunset.

The destinations were fabulous, but what really stood out was the care and patience Tania showed as she guided me and my sister through every question and hesitation. Nothing felt rushed or too much trouble. The result? A truly wonderful holiday. Thank you.
We had a wonderful safari experience in South Luangwa, Zambia this September. Despite a few unexpected setbacks behind the scenes, everything ran seamlessly for us. Our driver and guide were outstanding, and the standard of accommodation was truly first class.
